ASSALAM-O-ALAIKUM!

AS CLAIMED BY GULZAR SUDOZAI IN THE PARAGRAPH POSTED BELOW, THE AREA NOW KNOWN AS AZAD JAMMU KASHMIR WAS NEVER A PART OF THE KASHMIR STATE IN THEIR ENTIRE HISTORY.

We are all chained. We get conceived in the wombs of mothersAfter getting free from that castle, we still remain chained to mother, father, brothers, sisters, uncles and grandparents, our environment, society, school. Then we are taught a faith, which gets so ingrained that we get chained to it for whole life. The country of our birth, the life partner we choose, the children we have all keep us chained. Then we have some illusions and we get chained to these illusions. Jammu and Kashmir is one such illusion that some of us have created in our imaginations. The present areas known as Jammu and Kashmir came into being in 1846, when the British East India Company, which was then known as British Indian Empire, though the Mughal Emperor still ruled from Delhi, had first created Sikh Empire in 1809, and then at the demise of this empire sold these areas to one of their spies and agent Gulab Singh. The British had no legal or moral authority to sell these areas. The areas now known as Ajk were never part of Kashmir state in their entire history. These areas were part of greater India or Iran or Kabul Empire. From 1586 onwards these areas including Kashmir valley were part of Mughal Empire. The Muslims of whole of then J and K state which was in fact part of British Empire, as there were other 561 states, rose at the call of rest of Muslim India and overwhelmingly displayed their desire to join Pakistan as predominant Muslim area to join Pakistan. In fact the Muslims of these areas had never accepted Dogra rule and had been struggling to throw away this yoke. So when the Muslims of India decided to carve out a Muslim state known as Pakistan, the Muslims of Kashmir also decided to join Pakistan. On 19 July 1947 the Muslim conference decided to join Pakistan by a landmark decision under the leadership of Sardar Ibrahim in Srinagar. The people of Ajk rose against Dogras when the Dogra ruler hesitated to decide in favour of Pakistan and the rest is history. Jammu and Kashmir as per United Nations resolutions has ether to be part of Pakistan or India. We the people of Ajk are lucky that we are free and we joined Pakistan at the right moment. We are culturally, and religiously part of contiguous areas of Pakistan. The language, dialect and traditions prevalent in our adjacent areas of Rawalpindi, Jhelum and Gujrat are same. Most of our people have shifted to these areas and have inter marriages. Our properties are here in Pakistan. More than half of Islamabad is owned by people of Ajk. So my brother those of you who are enjoying lives in Europe should avoid creating problems for us. We are loyal to Pakistan and are very happy in- and with Pakistan. And as you people are now European nationals you should be loyal to that government. I will request you people to not to play in Indian hands and please avoid creating problems for us here in Azad Kashmir as we do not want to turn AJK into FATA or Baluchistan.
